Septic Isle hits the Previews catalogue in August and ships to comic stores in October – its ISBN number is 978-0-9542739-3-4

The book also has its very own website, where you can download the first 10 pages and read more about the characters. You'll find it here: www.britainisbroken.com

The book: The 52-page perfect-bound title has a full-colour cover and black and white interior artwork. An exclusive limited edition first printing of just 100 copies will be available at the Bristol Expo, priced £3.95.

The book is written by Andy Winter (Hero Killers, Blood Psi), drawn by Mick Trimble (MC2, The Many Worlds Of Jonas Moore) and boasts a wraparound cover by Declan Shalvey (Hero Killers, Freak Show). Andy and Declan were the creative team on Hero Killers which won last year’s Eagle Award for Best Black and White Comicbook – British. Declan is nominated for an Eagle again this year as Favourite Newcomer Artist.

Andy, Declan and Mick will all be on hand at the Moonface Press table at the Expo to chat about the book and sign copies.

The story: In the ’70s and ’80s, Jacob Marley was MI5’s most revered and feared agent. But he turned his back on Queen and country to pursue a more peaceful existence. Now, 15 years later and with his life collapsing around him, Marley has returned to find that the world of British espionage is more dangerous than ever before.

Ageing, heartbroken and off his game, Marley must now face off against Jerome Quinn. A former MI5 man himself, Quinn leads Odin’s Sword, a neo-Nazi terror organisation that has declared war on Britain’s Muslim community. He’s every bit as ruthless as Marley, only younger, stronger and smarter.

To beat him, Marley will need every shred of courage and cunning at his disposal – and it still might not be enough...

There's a very nice review of the four-story Shriek! anthology over at www.comicsvillage.com this week - Glenn Carter awards the book 9.5 out of 10. It's an upbeat note on which to end a year which has been overwhelmingly positive for Moonface Press, the highlight of which was Hero Killers winning the Eagle Award for Best British Black and White Comicbook back in May. We're going to be taking things up a notch or two next year with several projects on the release schedule - first out of the traps will be Septic Isle (a graphic novella with artist Mick Trimble) in the spring. Until then, have yourself a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.

We did it! Hero Killers emerged triumphant at last weekend's Eagle Awards in Bristol, scooping top honours in the "Favourite Black and White Comicbook - British" section. It was a tough category as we had to fight off strong challenges from well-respected UK indie titles such as Malcolm Magic and Future Quake. Many thanks to everyone who voted for us.

Here are a couple of photographs from the following day: 1) Hero Killers artist Declan Shalvey and I with our lovely Eagle-shaped award. 2) A sexy close-up of said award. For a full report on the Bristol Comic Expo, go to the "Workblog" section of this site.
